All it does is hide the notices yes. There is no reason to block first party cookies from being set. It doesn't get you anything. What is important is for the cookies not to leak cross-site, and for them to be deleted when you leave the site. > Good idea - self destruct cookies. But another addon... in TBB, no > less?

If your worry is that the adblock filter I mentioned will have hidden this particular notice from you, then don't. Nobody has written that rule, and the nature of the notice means that nobody would. -- Mike Cardwell https://grepular.com https://emailprivacytester.com OpenPGP Key 35BC AF1D 3AA2 1F84 3DC3 B0CF 70A5 F512 0018 461F XMPP OTR Key 8924 B06A 7917 AAF3 DBB1 BF1B 295C 3C78 3EF1 46B4
